Common Issues

• It's possible that OpenAI systems may experience issues responding to your queries due to high-traffic from time to time.

• If you get HTTP 429 Too Many Requests, it means that you are making Too Many Requests. Please wait and try again in a few moments. If it persists, restart your vs-code.

  • This could be due to insufficient_quota on your OpenAI account. You could run the following cURL command to check if your account has enough quota. (Make sure to replace $OPENAI_API_KEY with your key that you use in this extension)

   curl https://api.openai.com/v1/completions \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $OPENAI_API_KEY" \ -d '{ "model": "text-davinci-003", "prompt": "Can I make a request?\n\n", "temperature": 0.7, "max_tokens": 256, "top_p": 1, "frequency_penalty": 0, "presence_penalty": 0 }'

• If you get HTTP 404 Not Found error, it means one of the parameters you provided is unknown (i.e. genieai.openai.model). Most likely switching to default model in your settings would fix this issue.

• If you get HTTP 400 Bad Request error, it means that your conversation's length is more than GPT/Codex models can handle. Or you supplied an invalid argument via customized settings.

• If you encounter persistent issues with your queries

  • Try Genie: Reset session to clear your session/conversation or Genie: Clear API Key to clear your API Key and re-enter
  • As a last resort try restarting your VS-Code and retry logging in.

• If you are using Remote Development and cannot use ChatGPT

  • In settings.json add "remote.extensionKind": {"genieai.chatgpt-vscode": ["ui"]}
